CsPbI2Br is an attractive photovoltaic material due to its promising optoelectronic properties. However, the corresponding perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with p-i-n configuration suffer from low open-circuit voltage (VOC) and fill factor (FF), limiting their application in tandem solar cells. Here, we propose using the fullerene ICBA as the electron charge transporting layer (ETL), forming a better interfacial contact and enhancing the internal quasi-Fermi level splitting (QFLS). A further reduction of VOC losses of around 0.1 V was achieved by an ultrathin phenethylammonium chloride (PEACl) layer between the perovskite and the ETL. We precisely study the VOC improvement and find that passivation of surface recombination contributes only 20 mV, while more importantly, a major increase of 80 mV is achieved by dedoping the perovskite surface, which removes a non-negligible electron extraction barrier. Our results give helpful direction regarding how to further improve VOC in p-i-n perovskite cells.
